Romantic Festival in Spain - Love, Books and Roses

Today we ushered in the World Book Day, and in Catalonia, Spain, a more grand festival is being celebrated, that is, St. George's Day (Diada de Sant Jordi). On this day, the whole of Catalonia turned into a sea of ​​roses and books. Couples made an appointment to travel and spend a romantic day hand in hand. On the most romantic St. George's Day, let us pursue the legend of the ancient knights together🗡🐉Learn the interesting festival culture🌹📕Unlock a unique roaming route🌳☀Embrace the bright spring days in Catalonia. . 🛬【City walk itinerary】: ① Casa Batlló Every St. George's Day, this world cultural heritage renovated by the architectural giant Antoni Gaudí will be surrounded by clusters of roses and bloom at 43 Passeig de Gràcia ② Boqueria Market Located on La Rambla in Barcelona, ​​it is one of the oldest and most special food markets in Barcelona. Every morning, as the sun rises, more than 250 merchants draw up their curtains and decorate their stalls with brightly colored and diverse products to make them "eye-catching". The variety of food in the market is amazing. Here, you can not only find Spanish products, but also exotic products from all over the world. ③ Basilica de la Sagrada Familia The St. George's Day Open Day will be held on this day, which is a great time for you to visit! Starting from these ancient buildings, feel the long history of Barcelona ④Park Güell At the entrance of Park Güell are two brightly glazed buildings, like candy houses in fairy tales. The most distinctive features of the park include colorful tile benches, a hundred-column hall, a huge lizard sculpture and winding steps. The recommended tour route is: back door-oblique column-stone column corridor-Greek theater-tile bench-column hall-lizard fountain-candy house-front door . 🍩【Must-eat food】: Pan de Sant Jordi Because Mahón cheese (queso de Mahón) and sausage (sobrasada) are added alternately in the dough, it presents red and yellow colors when cut, which just echoes the colors of the flag, and the taste is also very rich Pastel de Sant Jordi This is a book-shaped dessert made of sponge cake slices, with chocolate sandwiched between the layers. On top of the cake, the pastry chef will cleverly place a layer of caramel as a cover, decorated with various festive patterns and decorations, such as dragons, roses and red and yellow flags. Tasting cakes is like turning the pages of a book and reliving the ancient legend of the dragon-slaying knight. 🏨[Accommodation Guide]: Customize the hotel according to your needs 🧡[tips]: It is recommended to buy tickets for popular attractions in advance to avoid queuing for too long
